Well, Well, Well

In light of International Women’s Day on March 8, we discuss the unique challenges and triumphs of LBQ+ women navigating cultural expectations. Rachel and Molly kick off by reflecting on the pride festival season coming to an end, and the lingering comedown you may feel afterwards. Smaller queer gatherings and creative activities can fill the gap left by large festivals, and we discuss how you can stay connected to your communities through art walks, hikes, book clubs, and more. Dr Judy Tang also joins us to chat about the mental health impact of juggling cultural and queer identities, and outline how you can set healthy boundaries, seek peer support, and foster inclusive leadership.
